Television Violence

One of the most important technology in the world is the Television, that has been used long time ago and developed in to many other types of TV such as 3D, HD TV’s, for everything there is an good side and a bad side about it. Television violence is from the effect of the movie or a TV series on the people who watch it, kids are the victims of the TV shows especially the cartoon that shows them how a superhero can do amazing things such as flying, breaking walls by one punch, or even having laser eyes. The flying is a really dangerous effect that any kid see it from the superhero and they want to try because they are amazed from there action, many death accident happened because of kids jumping from really high place, they think that they will fly and be like the superhero they watched on TV. Kids are like sponges they observe and learn from the cartoon they watch, weather it’s a superhero or sometimes the main character is a thief and that will have a huge impact in the kid because when the cartoon character lies to get out of trouble or steal stuff from people, kids will think that lying is a good things and they will use it on there parent to get out of trouble, even sometimes they tend to steal because they think that stealing is a good thing because the saw it on TV. Cartoon are all unreal figures so when they throw stuff on each other and they wont get hurt, and when kids watch this they think that nothing will happen, so they use on there friends or there families, they throw knifes, plates and other dangerous things, in most of the time they get hurt, sometimes with severe injures.

One Saturday morning many years ago, I was watching an episode of the 
Roadrunner' on television. As Wile E. Coyote was pushed off of a cliff by the
Roadrunner for the fourth or fifth time, I started laughing uncontrollably. I
then watched a Bugs Bunny' show and started laughing whenever I saw Elmer Fudd
shoot Daffy Duck and his bill went twirling around his head. The next day, I
pushed my brother off of a cliff and shot my dog to see if its head would twirl
around.
Obviously, that last sentence is not true. Some people believe that
violence on the tube is one of the main factors that leads to real-life violence,
but in my opinion, television is just a minor factor that leads to real-life
violence and that it is the parents responsibility to teach kids the difference.
According to Rathus in Psychology in the New Millennium, observational
learning may account for most human learning (239). Observational learning
extends to observing parents and peers, classroom learning, reading books, and
learning from media such as television and films. Nearly all of us have been
exposed to television, videotapes, and films in the classroom. Children in day-
care centers often watch Sesame Street. There are filmed and videotaped
versions of great works of literature...

Violent role in history
In the “Violence Vanquished” with Steven Pinker, Pinker considers that the modern era is the most peaceful time in the history of the human species. All kinds of violence have declined due to the progress of human civilization, government ability to enforcement, development of commerce and the expansion of cosmopolitanism. The author has pulled together data from numerous statistical sources to back up his claim that violence has tended to decline through human history. He then tries to explain this, and overall it's an impressive synthesis. Pinker cites the five examples. The first example talks about 5000 years ago, when humans lived in tribes. Often there will be a war between tribes and tribes, but after the war is unified, the numerous tribes that make up a kingdom, reducing a lot of such violent behaviors. The second example talks about the decline of violence was a civilizing process that is best documented in Europe. Historical records show that in the late Middle Ages and the beginning of the 20th century, European countries saw a 10 to 50 times more likely to lower rates to kill. The third example talks about Humanitarian Revolution, with the occurrence Enlightenment. Judicial widely the abolition of torture. The fourth example talks about The World War. At the end of world war ii, we...

...Nowadays, school violence becomes a serious problem in many countries. Especially in Vietnam, there r more and more SV with more serious consequence. Everybody usually thinks that school is a peaceful place, but now the risk of dangerous is lucking? Our children. So, what should we do to protect our children? First, we have to find out the causes of SV. After that, we can expose some solutions. In short, what I want to talk abs today is cause and solution of SV.
Let’s start with some reason why SV happens. Today I’ll share 4 reasons with u.
The most important reason is that family. The students who have lack of interest from family tend to use violence to solve problem. Their parents go to all day; they provide them only materials go to all day. In contrast, they pamper / indulge their children so much. They don’t pay attention to their children’s change. Sometimes the students need someone to share their emotion ab life, friend, love… but no one can share with them. They have felt in depression. They can’t do anything to solve their problem, and they will use violence.
The second one is not less important. This is school. What I want to talk here is the teacher. Being a teacher, a good eg for students, they must have professional conscience. Nowadays, most of them follow the magic of money, they don’t care ab their student. Sometimes they use violent action to deal w/ student. Dedication, sincere love of the teacher will...

...Visual Media & Culture Changes
Exposing children to too much television can cause health concerns, slower development in the brain, and an addiction to television. It slowly kills your brain cells, because you begin to feed into some of the stupidity that is found on the television. The more scientific facts of why it kills your brain cells is because the more you watch television, you begin to lose sight of the real world. You can begin to think that what you see on television is real. Which we all know it is not, but after a long time it happens. With both of my children they did not believe in monsters under their beds or in their closets, but seeing it on television enough has made them begin to believe that they are real. Television can also make you lazy and your normal life just fades out. With children it has more of an effect than it does with adults. For the most part every child loves watching television from the moment that they are introduced to the big box. Since television has become more savvy and technical, children have become more fascinated. They have begun making shows on television that are so addicting because of the amount of drama they have. Everyone wants to know what’s going to happen next, so they feel they must continue to watch just to see what happens. Every child is affected differently by...

TelevisionViolenceTelevisionviolence is a big major concern in our world today because it affects our children in so many ways. Television rating codes like PG13, R, and M should all be banned from kids. There are some television content on some action movies and certain cartoons that have a lot of shooting, punching, beating, pounding, and hitting which brings a lot of negatively. Televisionviolence makes kids say violent things in general or not knowing if a word is good or not. An outcome of this is that children can get an aggressive behavior and can be incapable of distinguishing real life and fantasy with the overwhelming violence on television. I think televisionviolence in general should only be shown at night time for adults while the children are asleep.
The violence on television causes harmful effects that are grouped into three primary categories which are: children’s learning of aggressive attitudes and behaviors; desensitization, or an increased callousness towards victims of violence; and increased or exaggerated fear of being victimized by violence. Turn on a television set and pick a channel at random; the odds are better than 50-50 that the...

Television and Children
For years pediatricians, psychologist as well as parents have debated whether television (TV) should be eliminated from the daily lives of younger children. The internet is filled with numerous articles and websites devoted to either supporting the parents that chose to let their children watch television or by providing an increasing amount of information that proves how detrimental allowing children to watch TV can be. The same can be said in regards to the numerous websites and experts that support the decision that allows children to watch TV which in fact, can be beneficial for their development and academic learning. Educational programming along with set times and guidelines can be an asset to learning in children by encouraging cognitive skills while improving academic abilities.
Content Matters
It is the responsibility of the parent to monitor what his or her child is watching. What children are watching on TV is directly related to what they are learning. Age appropriate content is content that is specifically programmed for children under a particular age bracket. For example, a program rated TV –Y is aimed at children ages 2-6. According to the TV Parental Guidelines ("TV Parental Guidelines", 2009) programming under this guideline is suitable for children ages 2-6 and is not expected to frighten children or be violent in nature....

...Religion and Violence
When most people think of religion they only think of the good aspects that go along with it, and never the violence that goes along with it. All religions have some form of violence in one form or another. There are three basic varieties of religious violence: acts of violence, which are inherently religious; those intended as punishment for people believed to be evil; and violent clashes between religious communities. Christians killed a large quantity of witches during the sixteenth century throughout North America and Europe, this continues in some parts of the world to this day. In some cultures killing a person was one of the most important religious ritual acts. “Religion is capable of bringing out the noblest trait of our shared humanity. It can also, unfortunately, motivate or justify the most depraved.” (Lewis M. Hopfe, Mark R. Woodward, 2009, p.10).
Sacrifice, which is one of the most common practices in all of the religions of the world, is another form of religious violence. All throughout history sacrifices have been made to the gods and the spirit world, usually the sacrifices was food, drinks, or animals, but occasionally there would be a human sacrifice. Human sacrifices rarely occurred in Native American religions in the United States and Canada, but they were a very important part of religion to the Aztec and other native people of South and...
